Crop Hail Insurance in North Dakota-Field-by-Field Hail Protection

Targeted Protection for Hail-Prone ND Acres

Crop hail insurance is a private policy designed to cover physical damage to your crops from hail, above and beyond what's included in Multi-Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI). In North Dakota, where summer storms and hail events can hit the most valuable fields without warning, hail coverage gives producers peace of mind-and the flexibility to insure at the field, crop, or acre level.

Simple, Fast Claims & Flexible Coverage

Pays Based on Hail Damage

You choose coverage for specific acres/crops. If hail damages those acres, the policy pays according to the percentage lost and your selected coverage.

Flexible Deductibles & Add-Ons

Policies can be customized with deductible options (to lower premium) and popular endorsements like wind, fire, or replant cost coverage-tailored to your operation's risks.

Fast Local Response

After a storm, call your Gateway agent right away. Local adjusters assess damage, document losses, and process claims-so you're not left waiting.

Layered Protection for ND Growers

MPCI

Protects overall yield/revenue across the farm, but may not make you whole after isolated hail loss on high-value ground.

Crop Hail

Pays on a per-acre basis, even if only part of your operation is affected.

Add-Ons

Ask about wind coverage, fire, or extra replant benefits-available as endorsements to fit local storm patterns.
